Shaping up to be a really Good Tour. Can't wait and hope to see Speith, Bubba, Rory and Phil at -5 going into Sunday. That would be awesome.

The past few years we've gotten lucky with the weather. The weather forecast this year thus far looks ugly.

Just adds another twist...

[ChrisP]

We'll if it's soft and wet, all of a sudden McIlroy becomes a heavy favorite next week. If you look at all of Rory's majors, they came on slower tracks. He struggles on faster ones.

[tiger19]

Have to disagree with you on that. The way things have been lately, there are no heavy favorites. another question what does a delay do to TW's back . If he has to stop and start a few times?

He'll have to figure out a way to keep his glutes activated.

I should have also added if he's on his A-game like last year. Rory's the favorite going in, but if he's not as sharp as he was at the end of last year, then I don't think he contends. If he is as sharp and it's soft next week, he's gonna be at or near the top.

Enough with the glutes already! Too much tiger bashing going on, I'm not even American and I'm hoping he silences all his doubters, the mans a golf legend already and I think we should all be in awe of his achievements! Part of me would love to see him win the masters easily then retire, but the other part would miss him!

Whilst it might alienate a lot of the casual viewers, for me the most exciting scenario would be seeing loads of the major-less guys in contention down the back nine. Wouldn't it be great to have, say, Westwood, Donald, Sergio, Spieth, Fowler and Stenson fighting it out with each other and trying to cope with that pressure? That'd be the tournament that I want to see.

Yes we should All be in awe.

That was an interesting journey through time.  Quite enjoyable.

Sadly, yes.

That is really cool. I never would have thought Augusta National had changed so much over the years.

[Natural Patrick]

Sadly, yes.

Duane Allman spent some time in Georgia. If I'm going to be in Awe, then I pick him.
